The car ride to say the least was... uncomfortable.

RM picked up Jin from his apartment and helped load his luggage into the large black SUV. When he entered the car the two front seats were occupied by two men who wore casual clothing. They both looked well built and intimidating.

Jin had shuffled into the backseat along with RM who didn't seem to talk as much as their last encounters. The car was filled with silence. Not even the radio was on. To fill his own silence Jin popped in one of his Bluetooth earphones and listened to his own music.

The drive was smooth up until they came to a sudden stop. Jin had spent the drive spacing out so it was a shock to him when he saw how traffic had built up. So much. It was now around 4:30 and the train left at 6:00 but arrived at 5:30. Jin hoped they would still make it.

After about ten minutes and moving about two feet RM took out his phone and began to dial a random number. Jin looked at him with curiosity, wondering who he was on the phone with.

"Send a car to 60th street."

"Mmhm"

"Ok"

Those were the words Jin could make out. Jin was left puzzled and in his thoughts until RM suddenly spoke to him.

"Grab your stuff we're switching cars. And one of you come with us and carry his suitcase." RM said. Jin was surprised at the sudden words but complied.

RM got out the car along with the man in the passenger seat and Jin got out quickly after. The trunk opened and revealed Jin's large suitcase.
The man quickly took it and closed the trunk now awaiting RM's next orders.

"Come we're walking to 60th street, if we wanna stay in schedule we need to hurry." RM said. "Yes sir." The man replied. Jin simply nodded his head and began following RM. Jin finally took the time to notice his attire. The man had always dressed semi formal or with slacks and a coat. But today he was wearing black jeans and a light blue cardigan with a white shirt underneath. Casual attire fit him well.

60th street wasn't far from we're they already were but far enough to where they could avoid traffic. They turned down different sidewalks and crossed a couple of streets until they reached 60th street where they were met with another large black SUV.

They quickly walked up to it and loaded Jin's luggage in the back. The man who carried his luggage was dismissed and began to walk back to the other car. Jin and RM got in the car with no words spoken and the driver began to drive.

They took another route to the train station, it was a bit longer but at least they would still make it. Soon enough different railways began to come into view indicating they were close to the train station. Jin began to feel his heart pound a little faster. He began to rethink his decision again and wonder if this was the best option.

Jin was too deep in his thoughts to notice they had finally pulled up to the train station. It was now 5:05 and they were still on schedule even with the delay. RM opening his door snapped Jin out of his thoughts and he began to gather his things.

Jin quickly got out the car and turned to see RM already getting his luggage out the trunk. He said a quiet thank you and took the large bag. RM signaled Jin to follow him and began walking. Jin stayed a good distance behind but close enough to keep up. The train station was crowded of course seeing as how it was July and families were vacationing.

They made their way through the crowd heading to the ticket booth to pick up their tickets. They waited behind a young woman and her child. The child kept pulling their mother's arm trying to pull her towards a nearby ice cream vending machine. Jin couldn't help but overhear what she said to them.

"Hanuel please! We don't have the money for ice cream right now..."

The boy seemed to puff out his cheeks, cross his arms and look down. Jin cooed at the boy's behavior and noticed he lady was now getting their train tickets. It didn't take long for her to get them and she quickly moved along with her child in tow.

RM began to speak to the worker giving the location and types of seat he ordered for them. Jin could've swore he heard him say something about exclusive seating but he decided he misheard and went back to observing his surroundings. Looking at all the families walk around with smiles on their faces looking forward to getting away.

With a sudden let's go from RM, Jin began following him again through the security and ticket check. When they made it through it was around 5:20, 10 minutes till their train would start loading passengers on.

While standing there Jin felt a sudden force hit his leg. Jin looked down to see the kid from earlier but the strange thing was his mom wasn't in sight. Jin bent down and helped the kid up and crouched down to his height.

"Hi sweetie. Where's your eomma?" Jin asked. The child looked at him with tears in his eyes and with the most stable voice he could muster began to speak. "I- I don't know *sniff* I saw a dollar on the ground and followed it but when I caught it and looked around sh-she was gone." The child answered.

Jin frowned and by now RM had noticed the situation and continued watching to see how Jin would handle it.

"How about I help you find her, ok?" Jin asked. "O-ok." The child answered. "My name is Kim Seokjin and what's your name?" "M-my name is Yun Hanuel, I'm five." The boy now known as Hanuel answered. "Such a big boy. Don't cry anymore ok? So when we find your eomma we can tell her how brave and mature you acted ok?" Jin asked with a smile. Hanuel seemed to light up at this and began wiping his tears away with his shirt and nodded at Jin.

Jin grabbed hold of his hand and turned to RM and spoke. "I'm gonna go take him to the front and ask if they can ask for his mom on the PA system. Can you watch my stuff?" Jin asked. RM simply nodded and brought the luggage closer to him. With that Jin began to walk away with the child.

The walk came to a halt when the child suddenly stopped walking and began to try and pull Jin back.

"Hyung wait!" Jin looked down to see the child pointing at an ice cream machine similar to the one by the ticket booth. "I have money to get one now! Can I please get one?" Hanuel asked. Jin was conflicted at first but began to walk him to the ice cream machine.

Hanuel got on his tippy toes and clicked on a double popsicle stick and inserted his money. The popsicle was lowered to the bottom where Hanuel picked it up and gave Jin a toothy smile. Jin smiles back and began to walk with him again till Hanuel stopped him again. Jin looked down to see him shyly making grabby hands at him. Jin cooed at him and picked him up. He wasn't too heavy so it was no problem for him.

Hanuel laid his head on Jin's shoulder with his popsicle tightly grasped in one hand not wanting to lose it. They finally made it to the front to see the same woman Jin saw earlier with Hanuel.

Hanuel's face was buried into Jin's shoulder so he didn't notice the woman. Jin walked closer to her and tapped her shoulder. The woman turned around and with and shocked expression spoke.

"Hanuel!"

Hanuel's head shot up at the sound of her voice and quickly leaned over to her.

"Eomma!"

She took her child into her arms and began to hold him tight. "Where did you go baby? Eomma was so worried and scared. I didn't know what could've happened to you." She cried. "I'm ok Eomma, hyungie helped me." Hanuel said with a smile.

The woman looked up to see Jin awkwardly standing there. "Thank you so much sir. I don't know how I can repay you." the woman said. "It was no problem, really." Jin said. The woman bowed and thanked him one more time before the two parted. But before they got too far Hanuel began to yell.

"Goodbye Hyungie, I hope we meet again!"

Jin waved at him with a smile and somehow heard the child speaking to his mother.

"Look Eomma I got us a popsicle to share."

Jin smiles at this and made his way back to RM.
